It is also worth mentioning that multiple components of the InsR pathway, including age-1, pdk-1, akt-2, and daf-16, are predicted to be targets of the let-7 family miRNAs. Our data provide the experimental evidence that two components of the InsR pathway are likely direct targets of miR-71 in its role in a specific physiological process, L1 diapause (see a model in Fig. S5). Components of the InsR pathway, including age-1, have recently been predicted to be targets of miR-71 in its role in aging (14).

(E) DIC images showing that hbl-1(RNAi) caused precocious VPC divisions in late L2/early L3 in both wild-type and mir-71(lf) worms recovered from 4 d of L1 starvation. Note that the daf-16(lf) worms recovering from 3 d of L1 starvation displayed a ∼12-h delay in overall development and that the mir-71(lf); daf-16(lf) double mutants displayed an ∼24-h delay. (C) Bar graph showing that the delayed VPC timing defects of mir-71(lf) worms was suppressed by an unc-31(lf) mutation and partially suppressed by an age-1(rf) mutation. In worms that recovered from 4 d of L1 starvation, we also found that a significant portion of the mir-71(lf) mutants displayed egg-laying defects and overproliferating or precociously reflexed gonads.
Whereas the vulva of wild-type worms developed into the pyramidal stage (81 of 82 worms), the P6.p of mir-71(n4115, lf) mutant worms divided only once (83 of 89 worms). The computation-based prediction that age-1 and pdk-1 are potential targets of miR-71 was also reported in a recent study focusing on miRNA functions in aging where the mRNA level of pdk-1 was shown to be up-regulated in mir-71 worms (14). (C) Fluorescence and differential interference contrast (DIC) images showing that the age-1 3′UTR reporter was repressed in mir-71(+) worms (3/4 transgenic lines) but not in mir-71(lf) worms (4/4 transgenic lines). The transcript level of unc-31 was increased in mir-71(lf) worms, compared with that of wild-type controls that were normalized to the value of 1. MiR-71 represses the expression of age-1 and unc-31 through the actions on their 3′UTR, but miR-71 is not required for arresting M cell division during L1 diapause.
miR-71 Likely Directly Represses the Expression of age-1 and unc-31 by Acting on Their 3′ Untranslated Regions.
Compromising overall miRNA function dramatically reduces the survival rate of L1 worms in starvation-induced diapause, and the effect can be significantly suppressed by an age-1/PI3K mutation. Furthermore, miR-71 plays a prominent role in developmental recovery from L1 diapause partly through repressing the expression of certain heterochronic genes.

We recommend that incorporating trait-based recovery dynamics is essential for predicting ecosystem stability under compound climate extremes. Biomass recovery was similar across growth strategies, suggesting that growth-related differences play a minimal role in short-term recovery; however, early regrowth was characterised by contrasting trait shifts. Solidago canadensis exhibited high tolerance to heat and drought, with early biomass and trait recovery, indicating potential for dominance under climate extremes. Biomass fully recovered within one month in both growth strategies, but leaf traits showed transient shifts, over-recovery in SLA and under-recovery in LDMC, likely reflecting production of new leaf tissues.
Previous studies showed that the release of postdocking calcium-regulated dense-core vesicles, the insulin receptor (InsR) pathway, the AMPK pathway, and protein chaperones are required for the long-term survival of starved L1 worms (2–4). Unlike dauer diapause, L1 diapause is not accompanied by life cycle changes and has not been shown to require certain signaling pathways that control the formation of dauer diapause such as TGF-β signaling (daf-1, daf-7) and nuclear hormone receptor (daf-12) (2, 3). The coordinated entrance into developmental arrest, long-term survival, and the reinitiation of development upon food availability are important biological processes to investigate. Different organisms have developed versatile growth arrest strategies to overcome starvation-induced metabolic and developmental problems. The presented results indicate that interactions between multiple miRNAs and likely a large number of their mRNA targets in multiple pathways regulate the response to starvation-induced L1 diapause.
On the other hand, the role of a particular miRNA (miR-71) is executed by repressing the expression of many genes in multiple pathways. On one hand, we showed that deletions of a good number of miRNAs have varying impacts on the L1 diapause survival rate, although they may effect the rate through different mechanisms. Instead, many specific physiological functions, such as the starvation-induced stress response, are regulated by a miRNA-target network, often involving multiple miRNAs and a large number of their targets. We found that the known developmental timing genes, hbl-1, lin-42, and lit-1, were at the top of the list (TargetScan). To understand how miR-71 affects VPC division, we searched its predicted targets for potential genes involved in regulating developmental timing. These results indicate that miR-71 plays a significant role in larval development of animals recovering from L1 diapause and likely does so by regulating the expression of components of the insulin receptor/DAF-16 pathway, as well as factors acting downstream, or in parallel to, DAF-16.

- 3′UTRs of genes of interest were cloned into the modified pPD129.57 vector as described previously (18).
- The backups are encrypted by the recovery password, which is only known to you and cannot be recovered by Duo.
- Furthermore, the observed derepression of individual genes by mir-71(lf) seemed too weak to account for the phenotype, consistent with the idea that a prominent phenotype of an miRNA mutation is caused by the collective effect of changing expression in many genes, an important property of miRNA-mediated gene regulation.
- (A) The mir-71(n4115, lf) mutant displayed severe reduction in L1 starvation survival rate, and the reduced survival rate of mir-71(lf) was suppressed by a reduction-of-function allele of age-1(hx546).
- The computation-based prediction that age-1 and pdk-1 are potential targets of miR-71 was also reported in a recent study focusing on miRNA functions in aging where the mRNA level of pdk-1 was shown to be up-regulated in mir-71 worms (14).
- We further found that this survival rate reduction of ain-1 mutants was overcome by ectopic expression of the AIN-2 protein in the intestine but not in the muscle (Fig. 1A and Fig. S1A).
- These results indicate that miR-71 is not essential for arresting seam cell or M-cell divisions during L1 diapause, suggesting that miR-71 function is distinct from DAF-16 function.
